    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    i know i need us more than i need me
    Her voice calling is the melody made to unlock my heart. In an instant we clasp one another here in the dreamscape, the lines of what ought to be our "beings" blurring. Having dreamt together with mother and mama since long before our births, it feels natural to disintegrate past the lines drawn for other, normal people. Where in the real world we are forced to be two, here, at least, we can again be one.

    I press a kiss to the fiery red of her shoulder at the exact moment she does mine, ready for whatever adventure she dreamt up for me tonight.

    "Never," I answer with a shrill, exuberant whinny and a buck up of my heels. "Please please tell me you have somewhere to take me tonight!" I punctuate my pleading by zipping towards her and taking her wagging tail in my mouth to chew on it ever so softly before administering one affectionate tug, and release. "Oh, but wait!"

    With that, I leap around to face the side of the dreamscape that she hadn't painted (or that at least appeared less realized than the direction we'd been headed). Knowing she would allow me to make use of her powers, I close my eyes and brace my small muscles and imagine the sunset I'd glimpsed that day with my uncles and cousins. I imagine it so hard that when I open my eyes what seems like eons later, it appears there in front of me: a sky of red, pink, orange, blue, green, and navy, so vibrant and enhanced that I just know that she's added some embellishments.

    But that's the point of coming here; we get to make things larger, better, than life.

    It's always better than life, here with her.

    Stepping back alongside Iri, I toss my head and snag her ear in my mouth (I stand taller than my twin by quite a significant amount, making this an easy feat) to lip it with fondness. "Whaddya think, Iridian?" I ask. "And don't think I haven't forgotten about our adventure!"
